Outlaws of Thunder Junction Desert Bloom decklist

Outlaws of Thunder Junction Desert Bloom decklist

Desert Bloom has a little more mana than average for a 100-card deck. This land-heavy card spread makes a lot of sense given that the face Commander (Yuma, Proud Protector) offers you the chance to sacrifice land to draw a card and create creature tokens. Of course, more land means more opportunity to send them to your graveyard.

Quick Draw has a larger than average pool of instants and sorceries, and once you check out the deck’s face Commander (Stella Lee, Wild Card) that starts to make a whole lot of sense. She rewards you for casting more than one spell on your turn so it’s valuable to have plenty of (often low-cost) instants and sorceries in your deck to take advantage of that.

While the face Commander (Gonti, Canny Acquistor) incentivizes casting cards you don’t own, you’re certainly not lacking spells of your own. Grand Larceny still provides you an ample army of 36 creature cards, giving you lots of opportunities to have them damage players and set Gonti’s activated ability into play.

Most Wanted, as well as having a whole load of artifact cards, contains 33 creatures which are almost all Outlaws of some kind (Assassin, Mercenary, Rogue, Pirate, or Warlock). How convenient then that when creatures that fit into this newly introduced type of batching deal damage to a player, Olivia, Opulent Outlaw creates a Treasure token.
